Reopening since this is for discourse.mozilla-community.org.

Planned for next maintenance.

What's needed to get this going? Both Discourse instances need to switch as we're going to be cutting it close this month on Mandrill.

When is the next maintenance planned? What's the impact to users?

What's the change look like? How do you test? How do you roll back?

A week from now works for me.

Worst case scenario is that email from SES ends up in spam but from my testing before this wasn't the case.

No user-facing changes, only replacing information in the config file. Discourse allows us to send test emails which I can use to test if it's been configured correctly.

Put the mandrill information back into the app.yml file.

Both instances have been moved over and tested to ensure they work.
